I started as a CNA (now a new grad LVN) and was very sad to hear the CNAs gossiping that I think I'm better them them. I help out as much as I can. It is steming from a a CNA telling me a resident needed a nurse so when I came to help she said something like, where are my CNAs at and I politely said "u said pt needed a nurse so I came, I don't mind putting her on the toilet anyways" now that CNA is telling others I think I'm better then them and tonight walked right past me banging on the locked door to get into the facility. What do I do?

But I wouldn't give two hoots about what she said. Other people will form their own opinions based on your behavior. Don't worry about foolish gossip.

I don't want to report her to the dsd because I don't think anything will be done and then she will know I reported her and I'm fearful that will make things worse.
